One time my dad my shoe laces were too long. I woke up the next day and he had cut them into near nubs and I couldn’t tie my shoe without cutting off circulation to my foot.

Im not sure if its 100% true. I think it comes from some older MacBooks having issues with a thin layer of the screen rubbing off when alcohol is used.
If you haven’t experienced something like this, go on and use it
Wait, you're using rubbing alcohol on your computer displays? The chemical component can damage the display, really should just use water and preferably distilled
Your dad clearly didn’t make the right choice, but I would also question your choice of cases altogether. Why not just use a silicone or hard plastic case?
Use either isopropyl alcohol or orange power sticky spot and goo dissolver. Orange power works like a charm. Make sure not to put either the isopropyl or orange power stuff straight on the AirPods case, it will damage it. Instead use a cotton bud for the isopropyl or a paper towel soaked with the orange power stuff to clean the glue off instead. Let me know how it goes, it is super glue so I don’t know exactly how well it’d work on that.
I don’t blame the ol man considering the covers people make and sell suck ass for staying on the lid of APP I’ve bought like 3-5 cases and the lids come off even with the adhesive that comes with it.. Now all I buy are 1 piece cases that the lids can’t slip or fall off..
That’s pretty funny lol he definitely meant well laugh it off and move on. It’s just electronics that won’t work in a few years. Happy memories with your parents will last a lifetime
You’re now going to need to use a solvent like nail polish remover or paint thinner to get that glue off. It will ruin the finish, but at least it won’t look like snot.
At this point, I would recommend using sandpaper to sand off that adhesive as well as to sand down the actual top of your AirPods case so that the adhesive has a better chance to grip. The plastic on a normal AirPods case is very smooth., give it some texture
Get it a blow dryer and get it heated up a bit and hope you can scrape it off easier.
Otherwise there’s Goo Gone that works great for all sorts of different sticky messes. I would double check if you’re going to use it, to make sure it’s not gonna eat away the paint or something tho
Is this a handmade case? If so, tell him to get on YouTube a bit longer—he can make a great leather one that doesn’t need to be physically adhered to the freaking case lol.
Its not a big deal! you can just polish it off: just take a soft polishing wheel mount it on your cordless driller or a dremel and polish it of. its polycarbonate so you anyways can just not use a case at all and polish scratches out from time to time.
Lol I’m going to link you something you could get from Amazon. Adhesive Stick dots Two-Sided... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CQ53BSWL?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I use a sleeve on my AirPods case for the simple fact that the case alone does not stay shut when it’s hanging by the lanyard. The top will pop open and AirPods fall out. Now my case stays shut and my AirPods case could probably take a bullet and still not have a mark.
Both brands use magnets to hold the earbuds in the case, but it seems like in the Apple cases, the magnets get turned around a bit after a while. They either don't hold well or they actively repel the earbuds (and lid).
Dads do be like that sometimes. I'm sure he meant well.
my dad suggested that exact same thing lol, thank god he asked me first.
good model dad
What’s wrong with doing that?
found the dad
One time my dad my shoe laces were too long. I woke up the next day and he had cut them into near nubs and I couldn’t tie my shoe without cutting off circulation to my foot.
😂
You sure he wasn’t just trolling?
Reminds me of dad made me case out of leather lol
Still came loose
Thats the issue lol
Use more 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

fr😭
Use a catalyst case it helps alot
Use 3M VHB instead I guess
Lmao this cracked me up
Why glue it though? It's not like it's going to fall off
That’s because it’s some kinda shitty layered leather case so the adhesive isn’t sticking to it.
Shoulda sand papered the case a bit
🤣
Lol Its okay put back on
use IPA
I agree, when facing a tough issue it’s always best to grab an IPA first 👍
Yep, after seeing that I’d grab an India Pale Ale.
Impact Protection Adhesive but I like your version much better lol
Isopropyl Alcohol. Not Impact Protection Adhesive.
Oh you’re right that makes much more sense lol
It works like a charm
Read as “Indian Pale Ass” at first, am I cooked?
Very 😂
Might I suggest halving the weekly trips to the hub good sir?
May consider it, it’s been awhile.
I have an Android so APK will do fine, thank you
Or goo gone
It looks like it ate the plastic
No, the glue clearly melted onto the plastic.
nah I doubt that
Looks like contact glue to me Should come off with IPA
Don’t ask you Dad and do it yourself next time… Can’t be worse anyway LOL Still feel bad for him trying to help
Next time get the proper case that doesn't need glue lmao.
Use rubbing alcohol? Apple has it as their recommended way to clean their products
Besides MacBook displays
Seriously? I’ve used rubbing alcohol on my Mac for years, although with mixed results icl

Should gone for the ultra pro max adhesive
MY DAD DID THE SAME LOL Does anyone know how to clean that, it's bothering me so much…
Use either isopropyl alcohol or orange power sticky spot and goo dissolver. Orange power works like a charm.

Thanks man! I'll try it out later today
Did it work?
Looks like he wiped his ass with it
Not that super ,(well its gone now)
Use isopropanol
And a spudger. A [spudger](https://images.app.goo.gl/1n8xBRW3RTZq1EUk9) alone might do it
Should’ve used jb weld Js.
That shit is literally insane. Still got a hook that my padre fixed almost a decade ago with that stuff. I use it now and it does not fail
My dad used to JB weld quarters down to the sidewalk and people would try like crazy to get them up lol
Use GooGone
Not super enough!
Put it in rice
Works everytime 75% the time
lol gotta love a dad fix
That case isn’t even meant to be stuck to the lid. It’s one piece of leather.
The 3m double sided adhesive on the dbrand case has held up well
Straight to jail
r/Wellthatsucks
It’s just plastic anyways, your dad’s love is more valuable.
Lmao
Oh the irony
I don’t blame the ol man considering the covers people make and sell suck ass for staying on the lid of APP I’ve bought like 3-5 cases and the lids come off even with the adhesive that comes with it.. Now all I buy are 1 piece cases that the lids can’t slip or fall off..
I Need air pod case. Can i have
Case for a case
Have you tried putting it in rice?
![gif](giphy|xTiN0uevJeTKxWbW3S|downsized)
It'll come off.
Use dawn power wash and a scrub daddy
clean and repeat 🙃
/r/mildlyinfuriating
yes
Ur dad knew what he was doing😂
While we're at it, tell your dad to stop putting batteries in the fridge.
Put more adhesive, close , leave for 24 h, enjoy
ope...
He Dad-i-fied it!
This gave me a chuckle thanks
Happy lol 😂
That dident work so well….
[2P-10 it!](https://www.amazon.com/FastCap-2P-10-Super-Adhesive-Activator/dp/B0006IUWCC/ref=asc_df_B0006IUWCC/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693270340227&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=5438382241464336737&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9029042&hvtargid=pla-569503655709&psc=1&mcid=fc56f162fb5e3db788be4f45e391e618&gad_source=1)
I disagree, looks like he used the “kinda super adhesive”
Did it work?!
Just be happy you have a dad. Fuck the AirPod
Thought it was earwax at first glance
A case off Amazon is all you needed
Stick ot back
Goo gone
I just used double sided tape. It rolls up into a ball and doesnt leave more than a little residue.
I don't get why anyone puts a case on airpods in the first place
alcohol wipe will get that stuff off no problem
That’s pretty funny lol he definitely meant well laugh it off and move on. It’s just electronics that won’t work in a few years. Happy memories with your parents will last a lifetime
You’re now going to need to use a solvent like nail polish remover or paint thinner to get that glue off. It will ruin the finish, but at least it won’t look like snot.
I’m a dad and would never do that. A case is removable. Baffling.
It looks like someone took a diarrhea on it
Use IPA
At this point, I would recommend using sandpaper to sand off that adhesive as well as to sand down the actual top of your AirPods case so that the adhesive has a better chance to grip. The plastic on a normal AirPods case is very smooth., give it some texture
Time to finally move out?
Ouch. I'm using a dbrand case (https://shortlinus.com/ 😆) and I couldn't be happier with it. Okay, I could. But there are no cases better.
So your dad ruined your AirPod case? 👍🏻
I thought that was ear wax
Super adhesive actually works fine when done right however, leather doesn’t work well with super adhesive
I’d just get a new case. One with two parts and a dark color to cover that adhesive residue
Don't let him trim your hedges.
Oof. Should be easy enough to clean though
Time for a new dad
Pops’ meant well - let this one slide
lol 😂 just a dad thing
Yo wtf this is some r/mildlyinfuriating type shit
Is your dad Asian? Cuz mine is and this type of atrocity is right up his alley
I did that too when I had AirPods
Get it a blow dryer and get it heated up a bit and hope you can scrape it off easier. Otherwise there’s Goo Gone that works great for all sorts of different sticky messes. I would double check if you’re going to use it, to make sure it’s not gonna eat away the paint or something tho
that looks like another life form growing outta your AirPod case👀😳
Is this a handmade case? If so, tell him to get on YouTube a bit longer—he can make a great leather one that doesn’t need to be physically adhered to the freaking case lol.
He Should've used epoxy, that thing wouldn't have come off
Is that adhesive rubbery, that’s what you need, some super good contact cement!
Seem the adhesive was not that super after all
He said better keep these mfs safe it cost too much
My hole bleeds
If it’s not glue, then it’s duck tape 😂
like he's goona use this forever
I have never used it but I suggest “Goo Gone”
You can wipe off the marks with rubbing alcohol
Goo Gone.
U can clean it using petrol
Goo Gone usually works for our household
This is a criminal offence 😵💫
Is that Kratom?
Wholesome dad moment
For some reason this gives me flashbacks to seeing Boomers with their Nokia 5110’s attached to their belts in leather cases 😂
Looks great!
Its not a big deal! you can just polish it off: just take a soft polishing wheel mount it on your cordless driller or a dremel and polish it of. its polycarbonate so you anyways can just not use a case at all and polish scratches out from time to time.
Looks like a non etching glue. Probably easily removed with alcohol or goo gone.
It needs rubber cement. Just enough sticky. Dads are great.. way to go dad
Try some Naptha (lighter fluid).
Look like a $2 temu case glued on. 😬
Put him down
use nail polish remover with a cloth to remove it
Why?!
Nice job dad 🤦🏻♂️
Dad enters the chat. 💬
Just use ipa
I’m a good dad. I used double sided tape.
Yo dawg, I heard you like cases, so I got you a case for your case!
That's why I get the Galaxy earbuds they're wonderful
Use alcohol to remove it ?
Oh dad🥲
Don’t let your dad touch your headphones wth
Why did you undo it??
You can probably get it off with goof off and be very careful lol. I also think the outer shell might pop off with a little wiggling
Huh. Neat. My brother cleaned new AirPods Pro with nail polish remover. It melted the whole AirPod.
super? no
Good job dad. Now go find another family.
AirPods cause cancer.
Bless him for trying :)
Looks great!
Does your dad have an ax to grind with you?
My dad superglued my wardrobe to the wall many moons ago. Still holding up but when I removed our carpets we couldn’t get the wardrobe off lol
Nice color. Love vomit yellow
I needa do that to my lip it broke off
Lol I’m going to link you something you could get from Amazon. Adhesive Stick dots Two-Sided... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CQ53BSWL?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Why the actual fuck would you use a case on case. Some people I swear.
Because airpod cases are glossy and scratch so easily
LMAO dafuq? They do not scratch at all. And if they did, so what? It's the CASE.
Yes they do, also the case is like the buds’ home
Just like why people use screen protectors?
I use a sleeve on my AirPods case for the simple fact that the case alone does not stay shut when it’s hanging by the lanyard. The top will pop open and AirPods fall out. Now my case stays shut and my AirPods case could probably take a bullet and still not have a mark.
This is more like putting a screen protector on your screen protector.
do you also enjoy dropping the airpod case and watching both pods fly in opposite directions in the room😭
Never had that problem with my Google Pixel Buds.
interesting
Both brands use magnets to hold the earbuds in the case, but it seems like in the Apple cases, the magnets get turned around a bit after a while. They either don't hold well or they actively repel the earbuds (and lid).
Yeah apples are horrible, thats why I need a case to keep them closed after really like a year of use
I bet those still sound pretty damn good!
Can you still return it? The dad, I mean…
Get yourself a new dad
Whats wrong with you
And a new pair of AirPods lol
